The model was independently proposed by physicists Murray Gell-Mann, [1] who dubbed them "quarks" in a concise paper, and George Zweig, [2] [3] who suggested "aces" in a longer manuscript. André Petermann also touched upon the central ideas from 1963 to 1965, without as much quantitative substantiation.
Both the American physicist Murray Gell-Mann and the Israeli physicist Yuval Ne'eman independently and simultaneously proposed the idea in 1961. [1] [2] [a] The name comes from Gell-Mann's (1961) paper and is an allusion to the Noble Eightfold Path of Buddhism. [3]
When the quark model was first postulated by Murray Gell-Mann and others in the 1960s, it was to organize the states known then to be in existence in a meaningful way. As quantum chromodynamics (QCD) developed over the next decade, it became apparent that there was no reason why only three-quark and quark-antiquark combinations could exist.
While studying these decays, Murray Gell-Mann (in 1953) [4] [5] and Kazuhiko Nishijima (in 1955) [6] developed the concept of strangeness (which Nishijima called eta-charge, after the eta meson (η)) to explain the "strangeness" of the longer-lived particles. The Gell-Mann–Nishijima formula is the result of these efforts to understand strange ...
The baryon decuplet shows twelve baryons formed by a combination of three u, d or s-quarks, with a total spin of 3 ⁄ 2. The vertical axis (S) indicates strangeness. Strangeness was introduced by Murray Gell-Mann, [4] Abraham Pais, [5] [6] Tadao Nakano and Kazuhiko Nishijima [7] to explain the fact that certain particles, such as the kaons or ...

The solution used a phenomenon called neutral particle oscillations, by which these two kinds of mesons can turn from one into another through the weak interactions, which cause them to decay into pions (see the adjacent figure). These oscillations were first investigated by Murray Gell-Mann and Abraham Pais together. They considered the CP ...
